Sega will keep its biggest franchises free from third-party blockchain gaming projects, but won't keep its smaller series away fron the technology.

The company also remains committed to investing in blockchain and Web3, but is shelving plans for internal development on blockchain games.

Sega co-chief operating officer Shuji Utsumi revealed the company's strategy in an interview with Bloomberg.

Sega CEO Haruki Satomi had previously announced the company was abandoning its NFT plans following negative reactions from gamers. Trademark filings for Sega NFTs were spotted shortly after Satomi's statement.

Interesting what does everyone else think?

Wow that lasted 3 days.

Well it'll at least be interesting to see what Sega doesn't consider a big franchise but Game Dosi considers immensely popular.

I'm a crypto guy, but NFT's can burn in a fire.

Glad SEGA keeps at least it's bigger franchises away from it.
